We are bears!

Today we have been making bear masks. We have been practicing holding scissors correctly and cutting along a line.

I think you all look Grrrrrreat!

Superstar

Our postcard went to Sofia today. She has been so kind and caring and has made sure everyone had their water bottle. She has also been speaking lots to other children and responding to them

Well done Sofia. We are so proud of you.

Practicing fine motor skills

Today we are focusing on using fine motor skills. We will be thinking about how to use scissors carefully, how to cut circle out of the middle of the paper and how to fix things together. You could make a mask, a split pin teddy(you could just stick it together), a bear picture.
There are a couple of examples that you might want to use.

In the Foundation 1 setting the children have been mixing brown, using red, blue and yellow, to paint their bears independently.

They have been extending their learning to real bears, playing with the Polar bears in the snowy, small world area.

The children can independently use technology, by accessing the interactive white board to draw their bears.

We have been investigating how we can tell if a bear is old or new, as if we were detectives.

Plus making masks in order to pretend to be bears! Grrrrrrrrrrr!

Feel Good Friday Plover Praise Time

To celebrate the end of two fantastic weeks of learning we are going to be having a little party with some games and dancing. It will be at 2pm on Friday. Your child can wear party clothes to school if they wish. The hangout will be at 2 instead of 2.30 that day. You can still use the same link for the afternoon hangout.

Bears out of circles

We have been practicing our fine motor skills today ready for making masks tomorrow. We have been drawing circles and then cutting out. We have some fantastic examples. A shout out goes to Liwan who really persevered with her cutting to make her teddy and to Emma who helped her choose the best scissors and explained how to hold them.

Well done everyone. We are ready to learn how to make a mask tomorrow.

Tuesday’s maths

Tuesday’s maths
Today in maths we are learning to apply knowledge of one more and one fewer using a number line to support understanding. Gold standard learning is to begin to use a number line and green standard is to use the number line to say 1 greater and 1 less upto 15. Can you say this without the number line?

Play the heads and tails game.
There is also a guessing number game to play.

This is the link to the video.
